Alan Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 (edited) Right, After browsing through the random photos thread i discovered a love for photography, Then i remebered that my dad didn't sell his old cameras befor he passed away, So the cameras are diffinatley over 15 years old but as far as i know still in perfect working order.There all is a metal suitcase type thing and all seem in pretty good condition, From what i know i think i have: 2 Cameras: Nikon FE2 and a Nikkormat, A large zoom? A few other lenses and a flash gun. As i said i don'y really know anything about photography so any help will be much appreciated but please try to use words ill understand I have taken some pictures of all the stuff on my shitty digital camera if its of any use.I know how to change the lenses and i know that if you focus on something and turn the lense till it lines up that mean it will be a good shot? Also when i look through the eye hole there a circle with a line through it, My mum told me that my dad once told her that if the top half of the circle was light and the bottem half was dark then that would also be a good shot?So are the cameras ive got any use or should i just give up on the photography thing now as i do not have any cash to buy a better camera.Anyway, Any help will be appreciated, Heres the pictures, Shit quality but meh: Edited June 1, 2006 by T-MAGura Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobnobs Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Go down you local photography shop and get your self a few films. Just mess around with the first one working out how it works, get it developed, see how you did. Learn from the mistakes and try to improve your second film, and so on.Looks like it's good gear, at least whenever it was made it was. Also, look for manuals on the net, or just go through some guides as they will tell you all you need to know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Nick Riviera Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 you're in a very good position to learn there, only downside will be developing costs and stuff. seeing as you've got a lot of glass there (lens's) and two bodies, you are laughing i'm sure there are a few people out there who are knowledgable in the field of slr's that can help you some more. good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
